adding objects to the level

Unity Engine
1

hm… i thought i once had a solution, but since i didnt do anything for quite a while, i forgot how to add my own objects via script to the scene.

just like var cube : GameObject = GameObject.CreatePrimitive(PrimitiveType.Cube); but for adding my own asset

thanks in advance,

thank you for the reply… but i dont understand how i can use instantiate with an asset. say my asset is called “ball” how can i use that with instantiate?

thanks,
ello

in script, you define an object as a transform. Then drag an object from either the hierarchy, or the assets to the object.

In the code below, it creates the instance of that object at world center. (you can adjust the position by using the Instantiate to it’s fullest potential…)

var object : Transform;

function Start () {
	var instance = Instantiate(object);
}

Object.Instantiate

static function Instantiate (original : Object, position : Vector3, rotation : Quaternion) : Object
